JESUS DEITY IN THE FLESH

 

YESHUA OUR SAVIOR

This post may make you think it's Christmas already, but no it is to tell of His coming.

1. In Luke chapter 1 we see that the angel Gabriel came to a young woman by the name of Mary, he came with good news; she would give birth to the Son of God. In their conversation, she asked how can this be? Gabriel replied "The Holy Spirit will come up on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore, the child to be born will be called Holy---The Son of God. NOTE: The Son of God did not have either Mary nor Joseph's DNA in Him.

2. In Matthew chapter 1 when Joseph knowing the child was not his, was contemplating how to privately put Mary away, in his sleep the angel spoke to him in verse 21 and said " She will bear a Son, and you will call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins ". All of this was to fullfil what had been prophesized about His coming.

3. In the Hebrew and in the Greek His name is Yeshua which means "Savior", in our English translation Yeshua is translated Jesus and means Savior.

4. We are all familiar with John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life". NOTE: when it says "so loved the world", it is speaking of humanity.

5. Jesus said in Matthew 5:17 (my words) that He did not come to abolish the Law or the Prophets but to fullfil them 

6. The Law can never justify nor save anyone, because every man, woman and child is born a sinner, the Law was our tutor that showed us our sins. Jesus came to do what we could never do, fullfil the Law for us that we might be justified through Him. The Prophets announced His birth was coming and He came. Born of a virgin, born under the law. The Lamb of God laid in a manager in a little town of Bethlehem, announced to the shepherds who came to worship Him, and the Wise Men who traveled from afar, arrived sometime later to bring gifts and worship the newborn King. The religious leaders didn't care, didn't come, and Herod tried to kill Him. But praise God, Jesus was born and tomorrow we will look at His life.

P.S. I know these posts are only highlights but it is always good to share the Good News.
